England's friendly against Belgium on Saturday week will provide the biggest stage yet for the testing of goalline technology before the vote on 2 July to decide whether to introduce it. Despite the presence of the Hawk-Eye system at Wembley, match officials will not use it if any goalline incident occurs.

The data will, though, be examined by scientists monitoring the system. It will be the final live test of Hawk-Eye, for which the most prominent trial to date came at the FA Hampshire Senior Cup final at St Mary's on 16 May. If goalline technology is adopted it could mean the end of wrong decisions being made that have caused so much controversy in the game. Frank Lampard's disallowed "goal" in England's 4‑1 defeat by Germany at the last World Cup that would have levelled the match is among the more recent high-profile cases.

A statement from Fifa said: "Goalline technology will be tested at Wembley when England play host to Belgium on Saturday 2 June.

"Such tests, along with those being conducted for the GoalRef system in Denmark, could lead to the International Football Association Board approving the introduction of GLT at its special meeting at the beginning of July."

Hawk-Eye deploys six cameras in each goal to track the ball, with "triangulation" pinpointing where the ball is. When the ball crosses the line a radio signal is sent to the referee's watch to confirm a goal has been scored – the process takes less than a second, a key Fifa demand.

GoalRef features a microchip in the ball and low magnetic waves around the goal, with any change in the field on or behind the goalline determining if a goal has been scored. Again, this takes less than a second.

The Football Association and the Premier League have been among the most vociferous strong supporters of goalline technology, and Fifa acknowledged the FA had agreed to the tests at Wembley and St Mary's.

"Fifa would like to place on record its sincere thanks to the Football Association for their willingness to support the live match tests, a critical part of Test Phase 2 for goalline technology," the world governing body said.

The FA's general secretary, Alex Horne, said: "We remain committed to the introduction of goalline technology on the basis that it is accurate. We are in an intensive phase of testing and are delighted we can help FIFA by using our stadium at Wembley. We look forward to considering the results at the next meeting of IFAB."

On 10 March the FA had underlined its support for GLT: "Following last week's meeting of IFAB the FA would like to reiterate our strong desire to see goalline technology introduced as soon as possible. The FA has been a leading proponent of goalline technology for many years. We will continue to press for its introduction once further independent testing is complete later this year, so that anyone wishing to introduce the technology is able to do so at the earliest possible opportunity."

Geoff Hurst's second goal in England's 4-2 win over West Germany which won the 1966 World Cup is still debated regarding whether the ball crossed the line. Recent controversial cases include Juan Mata's strike in Chelsea's 5-1 FA Cup semi-final win over Tottenham Hotspur on 15 April and Clint Hill's header that clearly crossed the line when Queens Park Rangers lost 2-1 to Bolton Wanderers on 10 March.
